Heartless June 20, 2003 Share Heartless Member June 20, 2003 Today i got a new mouse after having an HP plain 2 button mouse for 3 years! I finally got a scrolly thingy in the middle, and its a cordless optical mouse! It fits my hand nice, and even has a thumb button (which i have to take off undo, cause i just typed this and hit it by mistake.) My HP mouse was so old the left button broke and i had to use the right button for the left, and i couldn't right click.... u know what i mean. It was hard to steal stuff from websites! I know i sound like a dork, but im excited.. and this IS wonderland I'm never going back to a regular mouse EVER again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xterminator June 20, 2003 Share Xterminator Member June 20, 2003 nice heartless, welcome to the world of optical mice. It's so much better for CS, not to mention the roller ball which is more practical for forums *scrolls up and down* and for CS when changing guns!

dwEEziL June 20, 2003 Share dwEEziL Member June 20, 2003 Congrats Heartless one thing to let you know though. If you play CS or other FPS' a lot (haven't seen you on tropolis so don't know if you still do play), unless you got the Logitech MX700 or the MS Bluetooth wireless mice, you will probably notice some lag in-game. But yes, optical mice are tons better than ball (except for the Boomslang). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwEEziL June 20, 2003 Share dwEEziL Member June 20, 2003 IMO, as regular mice go (excluding gaming mice like the Razer Boomslang), Logitech is my favorite. Good quality and decent prices. Even a crappy one from them beats the pants off most other brands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwEEziL June 21, 2003 Share dwEEziL Member June 21, 2003 Nope. Typical cordless mice, esp. when the batteries are dying (the MX700 comes with a docking station to recharge the battery) have a small lag time because the info being transmitted to the base then processed. When the batteries are dying, this is just amplified some. I know others with older cordless mice who also don't have any problems but I have noticed several that do.
